Our Homes, Our Voices Rally July 26th!
On July 26, 2017 at 11 a.m. EDT, the Campaign for Housing and Community Development Funding (CHCDF) will lead a rally on Capitol Hill to raise awareness of the importance of federal housing programs and call on Congress to fully invest in affordable housing. The rally is taking place as part of the Our Homes, Our Voices National Week of Action and will feature members of Congress, national advocates, and individuals who would be affected by proposed budget cuts. CHCDF has invited Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) and Representatives Barbara Lee (D-CA), David Price (D-NC), Adriano Espaillat (D-NY), Mark Takano (D-CA), and other members of Congress to speak at the event.
